|
Standing in the shadows of love* |
|
I'm getting ready for the heartache to come |
|
(can't you see me) |
|
Standing in the shadows of love |
|
I'm getting ready for the heartache to come |
|
[Verse 1:] |
|
Promise me, I wouldn't cry |
|
When the time came girl to say goodbye |
|
I always knew that one day we would part |
|
I always knew that you'd break my heart |
|
But that was a chance I had to take |
|
And even though I knew that it would cause me pain |
|
Just one look and I lost my way |
|
And if you'd ask I'd do the same again |
|
[Chorus:] |
|
Standing in the shadows of love |
|
I'm getting ready for the heartache to come |
|
(Can't you see me) |
|
Standing in the shadows of love |
|
I'm getting ready for the heartache to come |
|
(Can't you see me) |
|
[Verse 2:] |
|
Some things in life are too good to resist |
|
Opportunities that shouldn't be missed |
|
From the first time that I laid my eyes on you |
|
I knew right then I couldn't stop even if I wanted to |
|
Cause somehow you got under my skin |
|
My heart was locked but nothing stopped you breaking in |
|
And even now I know that we're through |
|
Over and over I just wanna kiss you |
|
[Chorus: (2x)] |
|
Standing in the shadows of love |
|
I'm getting ready for the heartache to come |
|
(Can't you see me) |
|
Standing in the shadows of love |
|
I'm getting ready for the heartache to come |
|
(Can't you see me) |
|
[Bridge:] |
|
I'm just a man with a hole in my life |
|
No stars are dancing in my sky tonight |
|
Baby I need you to make this thing right |
|
I can't be alone no one more lie |
|
[Chorus: (2x)] |
|
Standing in the shadows of love |
|
I'm getting ready for the heartache to come |
|
(Can't you see me) |
|
Standing in the shadows of love |
|
I'm getting ready for the heartache to come |
